Lime Grove Cottage
Lime Grove Cottage is a home for young people between the ages of 12 and 17. Our young people have mild to moderate learning difficulties, are neuro-diverse, have mental health needs and/or experienced trauma and neglect.
Our Home
Nestled within serene and expansive grounds, our newly refurbished 3-bed bungalow offers a beautiful setting for our young people. Each spacious room features stunning double doors that open to the garden, which provides an ideal space for outdoor activities. The addition of a sensory room enriches the therapeutic experience.
Our Purpose and Approach
At Lime Grove Cottage, we are dedicated to creating a nurturing and caring environment where young people can flourish. Our goal is to foster positive relationships between our residents and our staff members. We understand the importance of routine and structure in providing stability and positivity to our home.
Promoting Independence and Growth
Our staff members play a pivotal role in promoting the independence and personal growth of our residents. We strive to empower young people, equipping them with the skills they need for positive outcomes when transitioning out of our service. Our team conducts weekly meetings with residents, ensuring that everyone is engaged in planning activities for the week ahead. From trampolining to swimming, these activities are chosen collaboratively by the young people. Additionally, our staff and residents come together to plan and cook nutritious and balanced meals, further enhancing their independence skills.
A Place of Support and Encouragement
Lime Grove Cottage is more than a residence; it’s a place of support, encouragement, and growth. We believe in our residents’ potential to achieve remarkable outcomes, and we are dedicated to providing them with the tools, care, and environment they need to thrive.
